Zenit Miniatures have shown off the newest releases for the end of June and the beginning of July for Kensei. First up we have a new unit on the way, the Heishi and lurking in the background is a dangerous Ninja!

Inside this set you get ten miniatures in metal which could be used for the likes of Kensei and Torii which is their skirmish based game set within the same universe.

These folks come with big blades which I think might have been called Nagamaki. These chaps would be a frightening force to fight as those long blades would simply scythe through men without adequate armour.

Shadowy Assassin

As well as the Heishi they also have a Ninja on sale. Sadly there is no image of the model for this particular release but it does look neat in the artwork.

The Ninja fights for Kuge and is a different kind of foe. Whilst the Heishi are fighting on the front lines the Ninja is skulking around waiting to cut down your opponents character from the shadows. A prime addition to Torii I feel.

What do you think?
